To me, it looks like it's a problem with the bes-i0 function; however,
you will probably get better advice on a CLM mailing list.

Instead of using compile-file at the REPL in SLIME, try just doing C-c
M-k when you are in the mus.lisp source file. That will compile the
file and produce a list of compile errors in a separate
*compiler-notes* buffer. In the *compiler-notes* buffer, you can place
your cursor on the particular error message and press Enter. That will
take you to the place in the mus.lisp source file where the
compilation error occured.
